Patent number: 5749045Abstract: A method for handling alarm conditions from paging stations in a paging system is disclosed. The paging system includes a paging terminal, a plurality of paging stations, and a network manager. When a paging station has an alarm condition, the paging station forwards the alarm to the network manager, which in turn, compares the alarm with an alarm record for that paging station and determines whether or not that alarm is a higher priority than the previous alarms received from the paging station. If so, the network manager transmits a signal to the paging terminal to page the technician responsible for servicing that particular paging station. The technician is paged and dispatched to the paging station for service.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 1995Date of Patent: May 5, 1998Assignee: Glenayre Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Roger E.
